Joinery
Stairs have been a recurring theme, but I have also made panelled rooms, doors and bookcases. These have been exact historical recreations such as the Queen Square stairs or modern designs with glass balustrades.
 |
 Queen Square: These stairs were an exact recreation of the original stairs which had been removed. They are made of oak and mahogany. I worked out the design from the remains of the orinal in their new setting and from photographs. |
 |
Open Tread Stair : This stair is in a former windmill so it is a true spiral in that the radius reduces as it rises. The stair is in oak with a walnut rail. The balustrade is glass.
|
 |
Elliptical Stair : This minimal stairs is made of Olive Ash. The plainness of the details sets off the grain of the wood.
|
 |
Stave Stair : This stairs is constructed like a cider vat. It was inserted in a listed structure and is entirely free standing. |
 |
Cottage Stair : These stairs are made of wych elm. Their simple form is enlivened with beaded boarding and hollow chamfers to the newel. |
 |
Oak Stairs : These sophisticated stairs have a mahogany inlay on the treads and a parquet panel on the landing. They are in a new building. |
| Painted Bookcase: This bookcase has secret door with books on the front. The books can be taken out. | |
 |
Painted Panelling: This is a reconstruction of some late 17th century panelling. The upper panels are 3 metres tall. We made but did not paint it. |
